My grandpa caught 10 nice bluegill the other day and brought them home to put in his pond. One was a little sluggish. We were standing on his beach watching them when about a 2 lb large mouth swallowed it almost whole. All that was sticking out was his tail. I would have never guessed that small of a bass to eat that big of a bluegill.

I've caught lmb on lures almost bigger than the bass. Pike will go after big lures too.
